FACULTY PAGE FOURTEEN KARL C. MACINNIS, Superintendent Lawrence B. A.; University of Wisconsin, M. A. PAGE FIFTEEN To Our Commercial Department The dedication of this book to our commercial instructor, Miss (Iriflin. naturally directs attention to that department of the high school. Although much of the work done is of a competitive nature and comparison with standard scales, it is not performed before cheering audiences. We take this opportunity of calling your attention to the excellence of our commercial course. The surest indication that the standards are higher than most schools maintain, is the fact that the courses are rated by the students as among the most difficult in the curriculum. In many schools the commercial work is considered the easy work. Each year sees pupils in these classes drop out because they are unable to keep up to the standard required, or else are unwilling to make the extra effort involved in doing the work that would he acceptable. When we compare the work done here with that done in other schools in the state, we find further cause for satisfaction. Each year our representatives make fine records and win many prizes in the contests conducted by the various typing companies, bookkeeping, and shorthand publishers. In the annual high school contests we have always won high honors in typing and shorthand. The final test of a vocational course is how does the product fare when graduated. For years the office help of the business men of our city has come from our high school commercial department. Some students have been employed in neighboring cities and others have gone to Milwaukee or Chicago. Those who have done good work here at school have invariably given satisfaction in their positions secured after graduation. In comparison with the average business college graduate, our graduates are usually superior in training and ability. The success of any high school department is mainly dependent on the teacher in charge. The product is an indication of the teacher's worth. Our commercial department has made a record which every Jeffersonian is proud of. It is a real testimonial to Miss (Iriffin and explains why we have chosen to dedicate this book to her. —The Staff. PAGE SIXTEEN Our Faculty There is our Miss Trager Who fits in most every place As a subslilule ami librarian She leads I hem all in the rare. We have Miss llulli K. Rankin In classes of history ami Latin. She'll say. “Let's have it quiet. Hut we keep right on laughin'. We also have a commercial department And here's where we lind some speed. Hut with Miss iri111n as a teacher. There's nothing more we need. Mr. Trent I age is our physics and science teacher And the very best of sports He also teaches mathematics And sends to our parents reports. Then there is our mathematic department And it is so worthy of mention. Miss Henry deals wisely with liner and angle, Therefore she deserves our attention. Miss Winger is our music director With a voice as clear as a bell. She knows how to handle our glee clubs And (Iperettas as well. Miss Edwards shows us how to cook The nicest things to eat. She also shows us how to sew With stitches fine and neat. Miss Schoeneman teaches us good Kngli h Which we always try to speak. And as censor of our Annual She’s not the least bit weak. There is English and more English Many strange things have to be learned, For Miss King is another teacher, And her words we never do spurn. Mr. Hager is coach from head to foot And as to a man of action and words There is none who can tell you so clearh As one who has suffered severely. We have a teachers training department t’nder Miss Kickerman's tender care. She also teaches (leography And Physiology of tin hair. We have an artistic department t’nder Miss Helen C. W eiss. And in modeling and basket weaving She sure takes the cake nice. We've a band of great numbers And an orchestra too ’ Under Mr. Stuart Anhalt's care It will probably pull through. An assistant we have in our commercial department, In the person of Miss Helen Heck A graduate of last year's class And a teacher in t he next. —W inston Schallert.

SENIORS PAGE TWENTY Class of 1927 As 1 sit hero with my lieail resting upon my hands, I ran recall those days when we were members of old Jefferson High School. It is almost forty years now since the class of nineteen hundred twenty-seven passed from those dear walls out into the world. Ah! To he hack again with those good old classmates who have drifted apart. Some have passed into the world beyond, hut I can still recall all of them now, as t sit before the lire. It was in September 1923 when we all assembled in the Main Room of our old High School. It was to he our home for four years. After becoming acquainted with the new routine, we elected our ofllcers: Robert Spangler, President; Lillian Verhalen, Vice President ; Carl Zobel, Secretary and Treasurer. During our Freshman year, we held several parties. Mr. Jack Vincent found us very useful in his Friday afternoon programs. Some of the members of our class joined the band or orchestra. Some took up declamatory work, and some joined the glee clubs. 'Then, in March occurred that sad event which will never be blotted from our memory. Our beloved school was destroyed by tire. However, two days later we went to school around the town. Different club rooms, halls, etc., were used as classrooms. These same rooms served the purpose during our Sophomore year. During this year the following people acted as class officers: President, (ieorge Loeder: Vice President, Carl Zobel; Secretary and Treasurer, Mirl Hauser; Assistant Secretary and 'Treasurer, Knuna Fglow. Douglas Daniels, Loren (iafke, Harold kortman, ieorge Loeder and Mark Wollet went out for football. Robert Spangler. Carl Zobel, Douglas Daniels, and Mark Wollet took up basketball. Catherine Heck. Rosalie Hraun. Kvora Holst, Jessie Norman, Lilah Quick, Helen Kafer, Catherine (ileiter. Helen Nevins, and Lillian Verhalen joined the (ilee Club. Rosalie Hraun, Robert Spangler, and Joseph Leedle joined the orchestra. Douglas Daniels, Mirl Hauser, (ieorge Loeder, Loren (iafke. Catherine Heck, Warner Goetz. Kugene Fleming, Rosalie Hraun, Harold Kortman, Robert Spangler. Helen Nevins, Rupert Schiesl. Mark W ollet, Joseph Leedle, and Carl Zobel did their best to help toward making the band a success. Carl Zobel. Warner (ioetz. and Robert Spangler represented the Sophs in the new Golf Club. At ttie Commercial Contest which was held at Waukesha, the Junior Typing class was represented by Helen Nevins and Catherine Heck. The (dlicers of our Junior year were as follows: Loren (Iafke, President; Jack Friedel, Vice President; Marian Shersmith. Secretary and Treasurer. That year we walked up the hill to the new home that would lie ours for two more years. This building was quite a contrast to the rooms we used as our school the year before. The llrst day we assembled in the Auditorium. Mr. Maclnnis explained to us tin proper care to take of a new building. We always remembered this and prized our new home too much to mar it in anyway. A larger number of our boys became very good football and basketball players under Mr. Hager's coaching. Carl Zobel was chosen as the football captain for the following year, and Jack Friedel was chosen as basketball captain. Robert Spangler and Rosalie Hraun helped to make up the famous high school orchestra. The same people remained in the band with the exception of Warner Goetz and Mark Wollet. This year a junior band was started and Marion Shersmith joined. A number of our boys took up oratory and some girls took up declamatory work. We left school on May 25. happy to think that we had one more year of school. This year the Senior 'Typing class was represented by Marion Guttenberg and Helen .Nevins. At this contest Marion received second place, writing- 6$ words per minute, and Helen received third place with 61 words per minute. As the result of receiving second and third places, they were both entitled to enter the state contest which was held at Whitewater. At this contest Helen Nevins received fourth place. On September fourth we came back with the spirit or J. |l. S. running through our veins. YVe elected class officers as follows: Joseph Leedle, president; Catherine Heck, Y'lce President; Leo Kennedy. Secretary and Treasurer. The ‘•J staff was chosen and they Organ to collect material for the J. ’ This year the football men made quite a showing and the team was one � f the best In tin league. Basketball and track came and went with our boys making themselves famous. Again we contributed a good number to the band, orchestra, and gler dubs. The. girls also formed a crack ba krthall team conifKised of the following: Lillian Verhalen. Helen Nevins, Catherine Beck, Marlon Guttenberg. and Clara Puerbringer. When we left school that spring there were fifty seats to fill, replace such a class as ours hail been. I know It was difficult to Margaret Korn meter, '27. rAOfi TWPM Y ON'F.

PAGE THIRTY-ONE Junior Class History On September lift non, nineteen twenty-four. two hundred twenty pupils gathered ai tin Idle Hour to start nine months of work. Fifty-nine of these were Freshman. The present Junior class were some of those lifty-nine. On September twenty-fifth a meeting was called for only Freshman. Class officers were chosen as follows: Andreas Iteul. President: lluhy Feiml, Vice President; Charles Seidel, Secretary and Treasurer; and Beata Welter. Assistant Secretary and Treasurer. During tin year, many pupils joined different organizations and athletic ronlesfs which had been started in high school in the previous years. Ilobert Kiessling and Ellsworth Ladien joined the hand with desires to 'ecru to play cornels. James Barnhardt played an alio horn, Herbert Hoess-ler a clarinet, and Hoy Puerner a drum. For a short time Nina Miller and Clarence Holies were included in the orchestra. Nina and Clarence both played violins. Kvelyn Bienfang. Nina Miller. Wanda Meek, Crystal Moore, Viola Osmund-son, Mary Gericke, Carmen Maurer, and Ruth Haberman joined the Girls’ Glee (Huh. Debate was started in December. Andreas Heul and Hoy Puerner took part in this activity. In January the following girls entered declamatory with great enthusiasm: Kvelyn Nevms, Kvelyn Bienfang. Nina Miller. Marie Luther and Hutli Haberman. Nina Miller and Ruth Haberman were chosen as the two speakers for the final contest of experienced speakers. Joe Srhakelmann. Orville Hack, and John Lenz took an interest in oratory. James Barnhardt, Robert Kiessling, and Clarence Holies thought football great sport and went in for training with Mr. Hager as coach. June thirteenth the above mentioned band boys went to Viroqua to the band tournament. In the latter part of June a class picnic was held and good-bye was said to our friends and class-mates for three long months. On August thirfy-llrst, nineteen twenty-live, two hundred and two pupils again came back to gain more knowledge. The number of Sophomores then had decreased from fifty-nine and fifty-two. September twenty-third a meeting was called to choose class officers and decide on a party. Joe Srhakelmann was elected President; Charles Seidel, Vice Presielent; and Ruth Haberman. Secretary and Treasurer. A party was decided upon and the Sonhomores were the first High School class te give a parly in the new gym. Three e� f the Sophomore’s four parties followeei this line1, and then money gave out so had to stop entertaining and eagerly wait fe� r other classes to begin entertaining. Organizatiem and athletics were again started, and the Sophomores were glad to get more work. Members of the class went in for the following: The baml still held the members that joined in the Freshman year and Jerome Lukas. 'I'he Junior Band was increased by the entrance e� f Lucia Rindfieisch, lone Pitzner, and Orville Hack. Andreas Reul again went in for debate without a fellow-classman. More members of the class went in for declamatory and oratory in their Sophomore year. Mary Wollet, Mary Gericke, Gertrude Luther, ami Viola Osmunelson entered feu- their first year in declamatory work. Kvelyn Bienfang, Nina Miller, and Ruth Haberman again entered, but were in the experienced group. Orville Hack, Joe Schakelmann, and Andreas Reul e nte reel oratory with Andreas as the experienced orateer. Jame Barnhardt, Robert Kiessling, and Clarence Koltes were the football men, while Herbert Roessler became a star basketball player. Nothing much has happened as yet in our Junior year. Herbert is now on the first team in basketball and Andreas is a wonderful second team man. Evelyn Nevins is Jefferson High School’s new cheer leader and she makes a line leader. Declamatory ami oratory are again started but the results of the contests will have to wait until the next class history is written. A Junior.

History of the Sophomore Class The year nineteen twenty-flve was probably the most eventful year for all members of our class. For we were the honorable Freshmen of the Jefferson Ilia'll School. It was also eventful in another way. The building being new, everybody had trouble in flndinK his way about. Therefore the Freshmen escaped much of the teasing, which is generally their lot on entering high school, still we deserved some, for I am sure most of us attended every class hut our own. About fifty brilliant students enrolled in the great freshmen class of nineteen twenty-live. The first important class meeting was held under the direction of Miss Schoeneman. This meeting was important because in it we elected our class officers. They were as follows: Honorable President______Merlin Feind Graceful Vice President..Marion Stengel Comical Treasurer.....William Hrandel Dignified Secretary___William Widman In the days which followed we were all very busy as usual, most of us trying to solve tin great problems of algebra, one of them being. Why x.x = x. . Sometime later, on entering the science room we noticed an invitation written on the hoard to a party held by the sophomores. Every one was excited for it was to I e our first high school party. It turned out to be a jolly affair. Surely, we all enjoyed ourselves. At Christmas lime we returned the courtesy of the sophomores by giving them a party. Louis proved to be the sensation of the evening when he appeared as Santa Claus. Coming to Annamarie’s name on the list, his hand trembled as he handed her a package, for was he not then head over heels in love with her ? Soon after we had our annual Christmas vacation. Coming back from this short rest, most of us settled down to some hard studying before the semester examinations. Although ours was a bright class still a few had to take them. The annual declamatory and oratorical contests took place in March. We were very fortunate in having one of our classmen, William Hrandel, take first place and his name was inscribed on the silver cup. Another great honor was bestowed upon us when David Busse and Urban Fay were chosen as members for the debate team. We feel sure that the success of the team was due to their earnest endeavor. A band concert was held during the school year in which a few of our worthy class members took part. At the end of the school year, we were very proud of our remarkable record, for we freshmen had led the high school during the entire year with our high averages. On September fifth, we came back to school again, ready for work. Several new faces had joined our class while some familiar ones had dropped away. Soon we were all settled down for another year of study. The first break in our study schedule was a dancing party which we gave for the freshmen. Merlin, our athletic star, won much praise by his wonderful playing in both football and basketball. This year we were fortunate to have three of our classmen on the debate team, W illiam Hrandel, David Busse, and Urban Fay.

And absorb instructions carefully. They Iry their best lo obey the rules, Although they do it not so gracefully. Now the reason they enter J. H. S. Is not only to study from books, They learn lo meet life fair and square. Whether they be farmers, bankers, or cooks There usually is a feeling that This group is far beneath the rest. Hill after four years of training, They are considered of the best. When in nineteen hundred twenty-six, The Class of '30 did appear, We did not gaze or grin Neither did we laugh nor sneer. They elected all their officers, Held their parlies, got high grades. And I hope that their good work. In our memory never fades. Next year they will he. Hack again in Jefferson High.

ATHLETICS IHU PAGE THIRTY-NINE CAPTAIN .OREL CAPTAIN ELECT KIESSI.ING Football CAP I AIN ClsTER ZOHKL Custer proved himself to he a real leader for I lie football team. He was the spark-plug lo the machine. When it came to “drive. he was it with a vengeance. Every team feared his pile driver smashes, and on defensive work he had no equal in the league. “Custer had the ability to diagnose his opponents plays before they got under way and would stop them up short and many an opposing back found himself hurled for losses when hit hy “Custer. .1. H. S. lias had many good fullbacks, hut without doubt “(bister ranks with the best we have ever had. KI ESS LI Si i—( :a pt. elect Sputsy started the season at center but was later shifted to tackle. His size and endurance made him a valuable man to the team. He hail plenty of tight and was always in the thick of the ball. With the experience gained this year and the responsibility of being Captain of next year's team, Split-sy should be a great star. COACH CARL HAGER When the close of an athletic season sees the graduation of the majority of tlie stars, we often wonder where another team can be found to uphold the athletic reputation of the school. It seems that J. H. S. has had more than its share of both football and basketball teams composed largely of seniors. Under such conditions the task of creating new teams each year is a great problem. That problem has been successfully solved each year in a way to delight J. H. S. fans. The “sine qua non of our athletic success is without doubt Coach Hager. To him must go the credit for building up the line teams we have every year. We do not always have the quantity of material other schools have, either in number of men or in size of individuals. Hut that handicap is always overcome by building what material we have into real teams, teams that know the game. The outstanding quality of the Jefferson teams since Coach Hager has had charge of them is that they “know their stuff and play “smart football and basketball. For all of that give the credit to Coach Hager. The best that we can wish for J. H. S. athletics is more years under his instruction. COACH HAGER ! AG£ FORTY Top Row—Spangler. Roessler.

Season’s Games The nrst frame or the season was played with Waterloo, at the latter place. As Waterloo Is not a conference team, this frame was taken on mostly as a practice frame. It was Jefferson's first irame of the season, and the play was ragged throughout. Jefferson showed considerable defensive strength, but apt eared to be weak on the offense. The lone score or the frame came when Daniels blocked a Waterloo punt and Tell on it behind the froal line. Felnd kicked froal. The next Saturday Stoufrhlon came to Jefferson to renew rormer relationships Hi football. Stoughton showed a well coached team which stung Jefferson with Its only dereat or the season. Stoughton rushed Jefferson right down to one yard line immediately arter the first kick-off. Here Jefferson held and Stoughton lost the hall on downs. From this |� oint on It was a great game with neither team having an advantage, l.ate In the third period, by an exchange or punts, and Jefferson’s penalties Stoughton carried the ball to the twelve yard line from where Nygard made a drop-kick. Though Jefferson staged a rally In the closing minutes Jefferson was not able to score. The third game was played at Cambridge, against a supposedly weak team. Coach Hager used his regulars until the game was on Ice and then every available substitute was given his chance. Despite Cambridge's hopeless task it went down lighting till the last Inch. When the game ended. Jefferson was leading 19 to 6. on the following Saturday the Watertown College prep Team played on the home ground. The Preps had a heavy and rast team which was set for a great battle. Jefferson scored a touchdown early in the first quarter, by a steady drive down the held. Felnd addded the extra point by a dropklck. This ended the scoring for the remainder or the game. The Jeffs displayed a great defensive game and smeared everything the Preps gave them. The final score was 7 to 0. After this game Jefferson settled down to hard practice in preparation for the Milton game. Milton always has a big shirty team and that's just what Milton displayed this year. The members of the team tiad a dazzling passing attack which continually made them dangerous. Jefferson again scored first in the second quarter when Felnd ran around for a touchdown. He then succeeded in adding the extra point by a dropklck. Milton scored a safety shortly alter Zobel was tackl l behind his goal Ime punting. This concluded the seorlng for the day and Jefferson was again victorious 7 to 1 PAGE FORTY-ONE FORT ATKINSON NI JEFFERSON Jefferson was supposed to have been Lake’s frost on the following Friday as Fake had its strongest team in years. Fake was betting two to one and any other way that it would beat Jeffer-s m. Fake scored shortly after the llrst kirk-off by a continuous march down the Held but Tailed to kick goal. Shortly after the next kick-off. Meracle recovered a Fake fumble and ran lltty-llvc yards for a touchdown. Felnd kicked goal. This was Just enough to win. 7 to C. and Jefferson won its greatest victory of the season. SCHALLKKT Although football was new to him. “Windy” came out in his last year and won a letter, lie played hair and was undoubtedly the ras lest man on the team, lie also played a good defensive game and would have made a star with a little more experience. SCHIKSL Always taking the knocks as they came and never complaining ”Rupy” finally won his letter in his senior year. He played either hair or end and though given only a few chances he always showed up well. “Rupy’s” weight was all that kept him off the llrst team. ROESSLER “Herb” won his letter by playing great football af end. lie was given a chance In the Fake game and by his good showing proved that he will be a star next year. He is Tast and shifty, has all kinds of fight and will undoubtedly bid for honors In the conference next season. The big game had finally come with Fort. Fort was easily picked to dereat us as they had the strongest offensive team in the conference. They had piled up tremendous large scores on every team they played, our only chance was our great defensive play. The llrst half looked very much all Fort as Hoene was running wild. The Fort backed Jefferson up to her own goal line right arter the llrst whistle and then missed a place kick. From here on. the play was about even Tor the remainder of the hair. Jefferson’s playing was superior in the second hair and would have won handily but for frequent fumbles. As the final whistle blew, both teams trotted off the Held deadlocked in a Scoreless tie. Meracle at tackle and Captain Zobel at rull were stars Tor Jefferson while Hoene starred Tor Fort. PAGE FORTY TWO FRIKDKL “Jack” was one of the best ends ever produced in J. H. S. Me was always alert and ready to go at the snap of the hall. It was very seldom that a man trot around his end. lie was a sure tackier and a hard hitter. One or Mr. Hager's biggest problems next year will be to III! ‘ Jack’s” place in the line. HAUSEH “Dlcca was the heaviest man on the team, and was always a star at guard. He always hail his opponents worried by his hard rharRiiiR and powerful tactics. He was a Rood tackier and a splendid leader or interference. Mlrl played his last frames Tor JefTerson HiRh but will never be forgotten. GAFKE Loren was the blRRest and most pnweiTuI man on the team. He handled the pivot position very well and his playiiiR was always or first class. Injuries marred Loren’s playiiiR every season, and therefore It hindered his career as becominR a Rreat star. LEEDLE “Monkey” was a great back as all who saw him play’ will admit. He was a Rood line smasher as well as shirty man to run the ends, lie did all the punt-IiiR Tor the team and showed up with the best kickers in the conference. “Monkey” was a strong defensive back and forward passes Into Ills territory were seldom Rood. “Monkey” sure will leave a hard place to (III next year when he Rraduates. SPANGLER “Speck piloted the team very well, lie was a Rood heady Rcneral and always pulled the unexpected. His keen judRinent of plays and his power to study opiHksiiiR plays made him stand out. He carried back punts very well and althouRh the liRhtest man on the team, he was always in the thick or the light. Next year’s squad surely will miss “Speck.” LOEDER George w . always a dependable man to guard. Ills playing was always marked by his lighting spirit and the power to stop plays when shot at him. He was a great offensive player and always made good holes for his backs. George will graduate in the spring. PAGE FORTY THREE MERACLE 4CIinf finally found hlmseir in the Lake and Fort frames that ended his career, lie played tackle and few were the grains that were made through him. on the offense he was a main cofr In our scoring machine. Ills stellar playing In the take frame, when he ran fifty-live yards Tor a touchdown on a recovered fumble, was followed by his equally brilliant playlnfr In the Fort frame. DANIELS “Hoc came out Tor football in his last year of hifrh school and cinched a position on the first team. In the Waterloo frame he played fruard and scored Jefferson’s only touchdown by blockliifr a punt behind the froal line. For the remainder of the season he played a stellar frame at end. He was a frood pass receiver and a stroiifr defensive man. Ends like “Doc” are hard to find and he will sorely be missed next year. FEIND Last year “Smiley was only a sub. but this year he cinched a position at half. He was the shiftiest man on the team and a fine open Held runner. He specialized In runnliifr the ends and did a very neat Job of It. We expect blfr thlnfrs from Merlin next year. KORTMAN After Tour years of pliifrfriiifr Forty ilnallv won his letter. Shifted from the hacklleid to the line, he proved to be a hufre balk on offense and defense, lie was in there ngbllnfr all the time and will be greatly missed next year. KOLTES “Pedro” was the hardest man on the team. He played a llfrhtuifr frame at fruard until he received a broken arm In the Sloufrhton frame. Pedro was a hard man to take out or plays and with his returnnifr to school next fall makes prospects much brlfrhter. YVOLLET “Roundy” played the tackle position very nicely. He used his weifrht to frood advantage on smearing opponents idays and was always a strong- offensive player. “Roundy’s big-frest trouble was that he couldn't fret mad but when he did there was no stopping- him. When “Roundy” and Loren frraduate next spring. Coach Hager will have to look a long time to fill their positions. PAGE FORTY-FOUR The Seconds A winning team is very hard In accomplish without the aid of a strong second team. Jefferson was very fortunate this year in having a powerful second team. Not only did they develop this year's team hut they made material for next year's eleven. They do not receive credit they deserve while seconds but their big time is still ahead of them when they become regulars. The men who were out for football but did not make their “J’s were: Reul, (Jruennert. Schakel- niann, Kexel. Schiesl. Rarnhardt, Fleming, Uoekstmh. (lardy. Heileman. Widman, Hrandel and Noble. The Cheer Leaders Jefferson high school’s teams were kept fighting by the loyal support of the student body and its followers. A great deal of this credit should go to F.velyn Nevins, Hugo Heck, and Paul Noble for their cheer leading. This was the first year for all three of them and they are deserving of a great deal of credit for their accomplishments. With the needed experience gained this year watch these cheer leaders do their stuff next year. EVELYN NEVINS HUGO BECK Hall! Hah! Rah! PAGE FORTY-FIVE FIRST Row schicsl, Church. Coach llaRcr.

Tournament Games In order lo enter the tournament, Jefferson was forced to play off with Marshall at Watertown. The team completely outclassed Marshall and with the aid of a spurt at the beginning of the second half easily defeated them It) lo 10. Watertown, with a very fast and rangy team easily defeated us in our llrst game of tin tournament. It dropped in baskets from the first whistle until the end with uncanny shooting ability and ran the score up to 25 to It. On the following day we lost a very touch overtime game to Waterloo 25 to 21. We led throughout the entire game until the last minute when Waterloo tied the score on a free throw ami then won out in the overtime period. CAPTAIN FRIEDEL Basketball CAPTAIN “JACK KRIKDKL The 1927 J. H. S. basketball team has made a record in our athletic history that will be hard to excel. The passing and all around floor game was the best ever developed by a J. H. S team. A great share of the credit for the smoothness of this play and the zip and dash in the attack was due to Captain “Jack.” Clever at handling the ball, cool under lire, and with the good of the team uppermost in his mind all the time, “Jack” made an ideal leader for the team. He has earned his place in our athletic history as one of our real stars. PAGE FORTY-SIX Players . CAP I . ELECT I-KIM) Although I In smallest man on the learn, “Smiley could always lie depended upon to play a creditable panic. He was very fast and shifty and had a pood eye for the basket. His lloor panic was always llrst class, and we wish him the best of luck as next year’s Captain. KEULER Keuler could always he depended upon to play a pood panic at puard. He was a stonewall on defense and had a ltd of drive in the offense. He always pave his best and Ins untirinp efforts were a hip help to the team. This was Keuler’s last year. LEEDLE Joe found himself toward the close of the season and developed into one of the best puards in the Conference. In defense lie stopped opponent's drives to tin basket and was very fast in brinpinp tin hall up the court. He was very clever in takinp tin hall off of tin backboard and opponents seldom got follow in shots. Joe will he preally missed by next year’s team. SPANGLER “Bob” played a remarkable panic at puard after being taken from his forward position, lie was fast on covering up, and opponents pot very few shots at the basket when In was guarding. He carried lots of drive in brinpinp the ball up the lloor and he fed the forwardmen nicely. He was a pood basket shot and his points added in winning several of our games. “Bob too has played his last game for Jefferson High. ZOBEL “Custer at Center, always played a hard game. He lead this year’s team in scoring and was a constant threat with his follow in shots. He handled the ball well and aided with his hard driving made it difficult for opponents to stop him. He played a nice floor game at all times, and was also a strong defensive man. W hen “Custer graduates this spring his positions on the football and basketball teams will be hard to fill. Our first game of the season was with Cambridge on the home floor. Cambridge is noted for its fighting teams, and this year’s team was up to standard. We easily defeated them 31 to 7. Our seconds defeated the Cambridge seconds 12 to 4. Jefferson journeyed hack to Cambridge for a return game and defeated them 13 to 8. Cambridge showed a greatly improved team and Jefferson was pressed to the limit to defeat them. 'The second team was also successful in defeating the Cambridge seconds hv the close score of 5 to 2. In a very fast and hotly contested game Jefferson defeated Lake Mills 23 to ID. At the half the Jeffs were ahead 17 to 9 but this lead was cut down shortly by Lake’s fast driving offense. With the score 21 to 19 in our favor and two minutes left to play Spangler sunk a basket that put the game on ice. The second team was victorious over Lake’s seconds by a 12 to ti score. The'following week Whitewater came to Jefferson with its best team in years. They had a very fast offense along with a strong defense and easily defeated Jefferson. Jaycox and Trail continually broke through Jefferson’s defense for close in shots and ran their score to 22 while Jefferson was making 13 points. The Jefferson seconds heal W hitewater seconds 8 to 4 in a very fast and rough game. Milton Union came to Jefferson undefeated and continued their winning streak by giving Jefferson its worst trimming in years. A fast floor game with an uncanny shooting eye netted them 32 points while Jefferson was taking 8. We earned an even break with Union however when our seconds won their fifth straight game, 14 to 10. 'Phe team journeyed to Fort the following Friday and was defeated. 23 to 15. It. was a fast and interesting game all the way through with Jefferson coming up very strongly from behind in tin last half. Fort put the game on ice in the second quarter when they scored very heavily to fill up a big lead. Jefferson’s second team lost its first game of the year to Fort’s second team, 12 to 8.

The wear of the Fort and Union games showed on the team, and its play was ragged. Sayre and Hopkins continuously ran away from our guards for pot shots. The final score was 14 to 9 in Edger-ton's favor. The second team played a very good game to subdue the Edgerton seconds 8 to 4. Jefferson lost its fifth straight game to Union on its own floor the following Friday, 28 to 20. The score does not indicate the closeness of the game. Jefferson played a dazzling game until the last few minutes when Union ran up the score. Zobel starred for Jefferson with to points. Our second team lost a hard fought game 10 to 8 to the Union seconds. Jefferson lost a double header to Whitewater tn a return game. Jefferson’s first team was defeated 14 to 8 and the second team lost 1 1 to 5. Jefferson’s first team lead Whitewater throughout the game until the last three minutes, when Whitewater got lucky on a couple of long shots. This marked the first team’s sixth straight defeat. On the following Friday Jefferson met and defeated Lake for the second time this year ID to 8. The Jeffs showed a greatly improved defense, coupled with a flashing offense which easily won for them. The second team easily defeated Lake’s seconds 10 to 3. On the following Thursday the team played its greatest game of the season when it defeated Fort 24 to 19. Unleashing a very clever and fast offense and an airtight defense which completely baffled Fort, Jefferson was able to win very handily. The second teams played a very good game which ended in a draw after a three minute overtime period. The teams were tied at 8 points apiece. Jefferson’s last game of the season was with Edgerton on the home floor. The team was out to buck and it succeeded by trouncing ledger-ton 21 to 12. This gave the team a five hundred per cent for the season as it won 6 and lost 6. The second team beat Edgerton seconds 4 to 2. The second team of this year was small, but it always played good basketball. The team played twelve scheduled games winning 8. losing 3. and tying one. The Seconds also defeated Sullivan 21 to ( al the end of the season. The second team was composed of Reul, IMtzner. Kexel, and Schakelmann alternating as forwards, Church and lloessler alternating at center, and Schiesl and Kiessling guards. PAGE FORTY-NINE LOREN GAFKE WALTON WETZEL Track Tin call for track camp immediately after basketball was over. The weather conditions did not permit outdoor work at lirst. so work was carried on in the gym. The biggest squad in the history of the sport turned out. The first meet was a triangular meet with Fort and Cambridge held on two different days on account of the weather. Fort nosed Jefferson out 53 2-3 to 53. Cambridge won to 2-3. Jefferson took eight first places. Fort throe, and Cambridge two. Wetzel was high point winner, Leedle second, Gafke third. May 1st we met Edgerton high at the local fair grounds and won 67 4 to 49%. Jefferson won eight lirsts, Gafke being high man with 15 points, Wetzel second with 13, and I eedle third with It. We then met Cambridge in a dual meet held half at Jefferson and half at Cambridge, May 10th and 11th. Jefferson won 67 to 32. Wetzel and Leedle tied for high point winner. A few men were entered in the Normal School meet at Whitewater but none of them placed for points. The Rock River Valley League meet was held at Jefferson May 25th. Wetzel set. a new Valley record of 10 2-5 in the 100 yard dash. He won by a yard over Hull, crack man of Union. He also took the half mile in easy fashion’and tied for third in the high jump. Gafke came within a fifth of a second of the record in the 220 yard dash winning by a five yard lead. He won second in the 410 yard, losing to Hull of Union by a few' inches. Lukas won second in low hurdles. Leedle won second in the javelin and fourth in the broad jump. Fort won the meet with 42 points. Milton Union had 40%, Jefferson 25%, Edgerton 25%. Cambridge 5, Stoughton 4, Lake Mills I. The Stale meet was held at the University of Wisconsin May 29th. Gafke was second high individual point winner with a first in the quarter mile and a first in the 220 yard dash. Wetzel won the half mile and qualified for tlie finals in the 100 yard dash. This was run before he had had a chance to rest after winning the half mile, and he lost a place by inches. The fifteen points Gafke and Wetzel won gave Jefferson a second place in the meet for Glass B high schools (those enrolling 300 or less). This was the most successful season in track Jefferson has ever experienced. A number of good men are available for 1927 and should make a strong bill for Valley honors. •ii ........• • I.........I'll ...........mill....................tin,,muii,..........I PAGE FIFTY TOP HOW: Mr. O.

Surprising they didn’t have their hair curled.’’ I half agreed, but thought at least they were on time, For Custer had not yet appeared on the scene. After a wait—most quarter to not quite Custer came in looking “suspicously white.” Now you stand here. No. You’re too small. And you stand here. Why, you’re just as tall.” Finally, Natter seated four on a bench. “Custer, don’t hold your hands so clenched!” “All ready.” Now look by me! Stick your chests out and look gracefully. Asides were given by everyone. “If he says that again. I'll have to run.” “Now look happy—-everybody smile.” We will if he says “it” once in awhile.” By “it” I mean,” Now look by me.

She went reluctantly twice a week because it was compulsory rather than because it was her choice. One day Average (lirl had an unusually large amount of work to do, for a History Map, a History Outline, and a Physics experiment were all due on the same day. When passing through the hall, she met Idleness who said, Oh, never mind going to gym class today. If the teacher wants to bother her head about your absence, let her think that you have a headache or a cold.” Average Girl’s sense of right told her that she ought to go to gym class, but Idleness’ proposition for an extra period sounded encouraging, so she decided to skip gym class. The next time that gym class convened, however, she attended class, but this time Mischief beguiled her, and told her that she should chew gum in class, as the teacher wouldn’t notice it. This, however, is strictly against the rules, and is rather a serious offense if committed more than once in that particular class. Also Untidiness selected her as a victim and told her that, as she was already late, she need not bother to lace up her shoes, button her middy, or take off her necklace. This is another practice which is positively prohibited. During the class, when the instructor asked how man) wanted showers. Fibbing took possession of Average Girl, and made her raise her hand as one who wished to take a shower, not because she really intended doing so. but because she wanted to use the extra time to dress. After Average Girl was again attired in street clothes. Deceit took possession of her, and told her to leave the gym before the last hell rang. After doing all these disobedient things. Average Girl had committed all the offenses possible. Consequently the principal called her into his office to speak to her. After considering all the pros and cons of the situation, the principal decided that Average Girl’s punishment for heeding all these vices was to tie that she would tie required to take all the examinations regardless of her numerical status. It is perhaps needless to say that this chastisement •cured Average Girl of the practices of idleness, mischief, untidiness. fibbing, and deceit. Helen Ivafer.

Sputzy” is addicted to football, hot dogs, and a Willys-Knight. lie plays a wonderful game of football, stopping the enemy's fastest and strongest men. We expect everything good and great in football next year from Sputzy” He drives his Willys-Knight like a chauffeur of ten years’ experience. Sputzy” is the band's best cornet player. He laughs, however, better and mure than lie plays. His capacity for hot dogs is enormous and would bankrupt an ordinary man in a year. Sputzy” plays golf all summer. His school grades are well over ninety degrees. He loves to dance and is as nimble and light on his feet as a nymph. Our Sputzy’s” penmanship is the only weak thing about our hero. One addiction 1 forgot to mention. It is a tie which he maneuvers into a beautiful bow every morning. We all expect Sputzy” to become President and we will not be disappointed. I’m sure. Hoy Puerner.

PAGE SIXTY-THREE An Experience In School One ilay. not long ago, I was very, very tired of studying, and I decided to waste every period I had. Of course, that is nothing new for me, tint then, I do study a little once in a while. The lirst period I roamed around the halls, disturbing all the pupils in other classes by standing outside and staring at them. The second period was Physics and I had a very easy time of it. Mr. Trent-luge did not call on me once; so far—so good. English came next and I didn't fare so well there, hut I managed to write my sentences during class, even though Miss Schoeneman's eagle eye gazed upon me more than once. Another period went by in which I did all of the following things; I read all the comics in the papers, disturbed many pupils who really wanted to study, told some good jokes to others, made Aunt Mayme roar at me, and finally. I was sent to the office for the rest of the period. Mr. Maclunis did not seem very surprised to see me. Instead, he did not say much, hut I just knew he was planning ahead for my next class. In Social Study. I was a complete failure. No matter what Mr. Maclunis asked me. I simply sat like a hump on a log and couldn't recite. Then, to top it all. he gave us a heavy test on the important points of that chapter. I know I don't have to tell you that I received a goose-egg. hut I was CURED. Now. I study diligently every study period, without pausing to even look what time it is. I sit with my eyes glued to my lessons and Aunt Mayme says to the delinquent Freshmen: Now THERE'S a girl who really studies. She is a perfect student to have in a study-hall. I wonder. —Rosalie B. Sleepy-Eye Boy ] They say I’m sleepy It may he so. 1 don't care, let them go. I may sleep once in awhile But I can’t stop All at once 1 take a flop. When in class I try my best. But it’s all in vain. Because from sleep I can't refrain. If I could only stay awake, I'd be very glad. But this can't he. so I’m sad. 'i on may laugh—just go ahead— It's no joke -don’t you forget, I may find a PATENT to cure me yet. —George Boeder.

Our hearts become heavy as lead. For we know in another six weeks School life for us will he dead. We’ve struggled each day to make Miss Sehoeneman appreciatively glad. I know we’ve succeeded just as much As previous Seniors have. At the beginning of tin year we had grammar. That was as easy as pie. It came as readily to some of us. As a list usually does to an eye. “Hamlet” came next in number, And he wasn't any one's friend. I’m sure no one shed tears of regret W hen finally we came to the end. Oral and written work was thrown in During every term of the year. It seems strange that such kind of assignment Was so hard for us this year. Now we’re having sentence sheets. We should stand ninety or above. Wo are sure that the man who wrote these Was not in that business for love. How can we ever afford to miss The pleasures that come each day. Along with the hardships and labor Found along school’s rough way. We reach tin fork in life’s highway. In the beginning of this next June Most of us will travel to success. A few may wander to ruin. But will we not think back some time. Of the good times on second lloor, Of the time we fooled in assembly. And of the times we thought life a bore. “If only I had been diligent When to school I'd gone. ’ Then sighing and shaking our heads again. “But those days forever are done.’’ —Marie Luther. .............................................................................................................................

Carl Stevens, l.ee Murk, Fred Traulinan The Alumni Association of our school lias for tlie past year awarded “.I sweaters to the students who earned them through participating in athletics. 'This award has induced many students to join in athletic competition. Those who received the oMcial football “.! for the year 1926 are: thirl Zohel. Hubert Spangler, John Kriedel, Mark Wollet, Joseph Leedle, Mirl Hauser, Ceorge Loeder, Robert Puerner, Loren (lafke, and Harold Neis. Ollier “J” men who received sweaters in previous years and who were on the team during the year 1926 received a service stripe in place of a sweater are: Kdward Rindtleisch, Walton Wetzel, Ralph Seitz, Arthur Koch, William Lucas. Victor Buelow. Oswald Kexel, and Michael O'Dwyer. Those who received the otlicial basketball “J” are: Michael o'Dwyer. Waller Meracle. John Kriedel, and Carl Zohel. Other men on the team of 1926 who received service stripes in place of sweaters are: Ralph Seitz. Harold Neis, Oerald Neis, Walton Wetzel, and Ruben Krolin. It has been customary in tin past years to award medals to the students ranking highest in their scholastic work. The giving of a bronze medal to the person ranking lirst in scholarship in each class has encouraged keen competition among the students. The students receiving medals for the year 1926 were: Senior prize winner— Leonarda Vogel, Junior prize winner Marion Shersmith, Sophomore prize winner Kvelyn Kienfang, Freshman prize winner -Klizabeth Seeber. Marian Shersmith ranked the highest «� f the entire school during year of 1926. Awards have also been given to those who represented our school in oratory and declamatory. The medal for oratory of tin year 1926 was won by Walton Wetzel, and tin medal for declamatory of the year 1926 was won by Klsbeth Miller. The Association also gives an award to the girl and hoy ranking lirst in all around attainment. This contest is open to Seniors only. Those of 1926 who received medals for all around attainment were Mary Mistele and Walton Wetzel, I’AOE SEVENTY EMMA E HILBERTS The Emma Friedel Hilberts Prize for Oratory was presented to Jefferson High School in nineteen twenty-six. It is a foundation, I lie interest of which will be paid each year to the winner of the high school oratorical contests. The prize was established by the three children of Kmnm F. Hilberts, in order to perpetuate her memory and her interest in the Jefferson High School. Most of Mrs. Hilberts’ life centered in Jefferson. She was born here in eighteen seventy-one. She was graduated from the high school with the class of eighteen eighty-eight the fourth class to finish. So she grew with the school almost from its beginning. Between eighteen ninety-one and nineteen hundred and six. she lived away from Jefferson, but her active interest in the school was resumed on her return. From then, until her death, her enthusiasm and loyalty was felt in school activities. Both her service as an alumni officer and her interest in her children kept her closely allied with school life. Her service and loyalty has been felt by many; and so. it is hoped that in this small way the stimulus of her interest may be carried on. f ACfe SRVENTY-oN£ Alumni of Today The average alumni of (lie present day, is a so called weakling when it comes to doing his real duty. Mis short comings as to Alumni and other High School Activities might he compared to the intense activity of a bee and the slow moving inactive non-producing snail. The bee does a great deal of humming and the snail says nothing hut thinks, possibly of what should he done in regard to more activity—as to our grand Jefferson High School of to-day. 'l'lie question indeed is hard to solve in the face of the innumerable activities. But, why all the others? And the one of higher education, better schools, better morals if you please all at a stand still. No Momentum. Is it the outside attractions;—Auto shows, movies, etc., or is it the hard cash, that measeley 1.00 per year that we are afraid of or that some officer of the Alumni might not dispose of the funds properly. Indeed the graduates of honor in scholarship or in athletic activities have always been awarded properly, both cash or otherwise. The funds (such as they are) have always been accounted for. Again why does the real Alumni always do the work and the other criticise his or her ability. Year by year, yes day hv day—305 days per year who is it that is active, only a paltry few. by the same ones that pay are the same that work. This past year no exception. This condition will always remain as long as we do not encourage the youth to respect his or her superiors. This may seem unsound, not a principle of thought and reason hut it is true, the Alumni is an ordinary individual, not true to his Alma Mater, not respected as he should he because of that, I don’t care spirit instilled into him mostly, by his or tier previous education and naturally the I don’t care spirit ” comes because of lack id’ respect of superiors. Why not begin right now make a real organization 100% out of the Alumni acting our part in our obligation as to a better school, better training, and lastly better morals which must he part of every ones education in order to make the graduate a better Alumni, always remembering the youth of to-day is the graduate of tomorrow. Pisces—’06. I'AGfc SEVKXTY TWO It seems jus) n short while ago Hint the (ilass of '21 was struggling with the seeoinl | nbli 'iitioii of the “J”. II is hard to realize the fact that live full years have passed since then and we are now sixth year Alumni of Jefferson High School. However, it must he tin truth for that was I !) I. and this. 27 and after three years of school and two years of teaching I am hack at Northwestern again trying to gather enough of this enormous supply of knowledge and inspiration to teach further. And at this stage of the game you write and ask for an article for this section of the J”. I have pondered and puzzled and thought, and I suppose I should write concerning that which I think about most of the time. It, of course, is Music- -because it lias to be for I have chosen to study it. In that, as in most any profession, there is such a wide field to work in and so very much ground to cover, that you can't begin to do it justice even by working at it, alone, all of the time. That fact leads to something else. For those people following one line, one profession in further study, and trying to become as much of an expert as possible in that one profession, 1 cannot stress enough the value of the high school course, pursued in a general way. Surely, that is the time to find out something about everything”, to enter into all activities and to finish with a knowledge of, and idea about, several things. After that there is plenty of time to learn “everything about one thing , that thing that is to be your work, for there are very few minutes left over to get that broadening so much talked of now-a-days. It’s then that you find yourself being sorry that, unknowingly perhaps, you have allowed things to slip by in high school; that yon have given way to that sin of procrastination, and thereby missed many opportunities to find out about things you won’t have time to think about after while. And now, I want to welcome those who are joining, and who will join this Alumni of Jefferson High School. Von should he proud, and we wish you good luck and success. —Audrey Henuen.

WHY I LIKK LATIN A most detailed study of tho Koman people and tin language in which they spoke is very interesting, t in Latin language is the medium by which this heritage has fallen upon us. Sort of a plague. I like to study Latin because it is an instrument for the formation of one habit, that of minding one's own business: It you are a Latin student you certainly have no lime to trouble about another's affairs.) Also because you become acquainted with how the Homans carried on successful wars so that you will be more able to overcome Hatties of Life as one grows older. I would recommend the study of Latin to every freshman wishing to receive high marks with little thought id concentration. Marion Shersmilh.

YOI SHOULD WORRY You have two alternatives: Your professor is either easy or hard. If he is easy, you have nothing to worry about.

If it doesn t. you have two alternatives: Either you are conditioned or you flunk. If you are conditioned, you don't have to worry. If you flunk, you don't have to worry any longer. Therefore, why worry? Mr. Trentlage: “Ideas are generally known by the facial expression. Can you tell by my expression what I am thinking about?

Answer: Our reference books only contain facts on his life for four years hack, and they don't show any signs of his having a hair cut. The record is six years. Question:- Is Hubert Schilling as line a shirk as Louis Schweiger? T. L. Mee. Answer: Yes, and much better. His erect-like walk and catchy hair- comb play a hi part in our selection. He also has a very lovable voice. Louis figure is a little too slim to expect to cope with the slim and athletic figure of Mr. Schilling.

Miss Kiekermann received all lier training through a Correspondence Course and a very good one at that. But Miss I eager received all her training from reading books.
